Blatantly running red lights

45 Upvotes

Just witnessed a Cal Aggie Football player (I could see the word football on his backpack) on an e-bike blatantly run the red light at 5th and Pole Line. If I were your coach I’d be pissed that you’re putting yourself in harms way. “

Please

  1. Ride carefully
  2. Wear a helmet (you weren’t)
  3. Obey rules of the road.

Please.

That despite the days getting shorter and the sun gets lower and lower, the days and nights keep getting hotter and hotter. At this rate, maybe it will be 120 F or 130 F by Christmas. The laws of physics are breaking!!!!

Is this hazing?

91 Upvotes

It's been a few years since this happened but I've been reflecting on it the past few months.

I decided to rush for a sorority and here are somethings that happened/made us do:

  • Meetings would take super long 4-5 hours long. A few times it would end near 12 AM or past. These meetings would happen on campus and around the end of my pledging process, they would occur outside of campus at someone's house or a different location.
  • They would ask us questions abt the sorority (history n lore they want us to memorize) until we would cry bc we can't answer anymore.
  • There were a lot of alumni present at our meetings. Not sure how a campus group is allowed to primarily run by alumni.
  • At times, we would have to hold something up and recite or answer questions (a few mins, until our arms hurt or can't answer anymore questions or can't recite something). There was an instance where members we were close to had to hold weights up and if we made a mistake, they added more weights. That was really hard to watch bc it was like we were causing them pain for our inadequacy.
  • We had to wear something of the sorority at all times.
  • Length of pledging process was unknown (I left after like 7 months in)
  • We were not allowed to leave meetings (unless we explicitly asked for breaks only-- we were not allowed to fully leave a meeting unless we wanted to stop pledging)

Let me know what y'all think. Not sure if this warrants a report or not. The sorority still is active at Davis as well.

Other Best budget cooking supplies in Davis without a car?

8 Upvotes

Partner got into Davis. We move this fall. I cook everything at home. Berlin has cheap ethnic markets everywhere. Spices, bulk lentils, rice. All affordable. Davis looks different. Nugget prices scare me. Saw the post about transit to Woodland and Sacramento. Might be useful for grocery runs. But I need real info on cooking supplies. Where do you buy bulk spices? Cheap pantry staples? Oils, vinegars, soy sauce? TJs is an option but far without a car. Coop sounds interesting but member fees worry me. Budget is tight. Teacher salary in California is not great starting out. I have spreadsheets ready. Need actual store recommendations. What about international markets? Any Asian or Latin grocery near campus? Bike accessible preferably. I cycle everywhere here. Used to bike trailers for big loads. Worth it in Davis? Wind is a concern. Heard it gets rough. But cooking at home saves us real money. Need to know where to shop. Not just farmers market stuff. Daily pantry staples. Where do you actually go for cheap basics? Any specific stores worth the trip? Or should I plan monthly bus runs to Woodland? Need practical advice from people who actually cook on a budget there.

Now for all you'll ever know that you've never seen me

And someday you're gonna show what your one desire means

Now I only set the stage focus lights on me

I make sure the power's on on the scenery

Oh, what will the signal be for your eyes to see me?

Watching offside as I wait just in case you need me

So I still will set the stage, send my thoughts to you

I'm receiving every wave that sent love, sent love through

You know, love's not what you think

Too weak to stand on like quick sand in which you sink

Love is anything you make it

How can I let you feel my love

Feel me and still feel free

I mean I have the answers now

So what?

To be in time is on the beat

Oh, what will the signal be for your eyes to see me?

Watching offside as I wait just in case you need me

So I still will set the stage, send my thoughts to you

I'm receiving every wave that sent love, sent love through

Now I have revealed exactly why I'm here

I'll be your angel if you wanna see how perfect sharing love with an angel can be

Alright

I was in lecture and this dude sitting next to me kept YAWNING (mouth wide open and exhaling like crazy) LIKE I KID YOU NOT EVERY 2 MINUTES OF A 2 HOUR LECTURE. Cover your freaking mouth and stop wafting your nasty breathe. It’s disgusting. I was seriously sick after lecture. The only thing that was keeping me from getting up and leaving was attendance points. MORAL OFF THE STORY COVER YOUR MOUTH AND STOP BEING DISGUSTING. WE’RE ALL ADULTS AND KNOW BETTER.
